I used to be able to turn off my apps by holding down the icon and then it would turn off, now when I do the same thing nothing happens. Have they changed the way you turn off apps since the new update.

Double tap the home button and swipe upwards on the preview of the App (not the App Icon).

Problems with my downloading app on my iPod touch 4 like when it's downloading I can't pause like I used to be able to and I can't delete it while its downloading ever since I downloaded IOS 6 I have been having problem like these

I also can't tilt on certain apps like I'm able to do so like before I downloaded iOS 6 you know when on certain apps you can tilt your iPod and the screen is going to follow your iPod right. Well I can't do that anymore and it is considerably a lot slower than before and don't tell me it's my iPod that's slower when I had iOS 5 it used to be able to do all this. Somebody got to fix this.

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Yu can make an appointment at the the Genius Bar of an Apple store or try:
fix for Home button

My device froze. Did the turn on and home button hold down to reboot, but now it has the itunes logo and USB cord photo.

It is a Touch 4th generation. My research on this site makes me fear the device somehow cleared its memory of all my stuff. When connected to the computer and in iTunes, it isn't recognized.
Problems: photos aren't downloaded onto the computer and most recent movie purchase on the device was done since last sync and isn't showing in my itunes account.
Did I loose my photos, videos (I took), and movie purchase lost? Is there a way to get the iPod to work again and not loose the documents I have on it or are they really gone?
It was working just fine and then froze. In the past, I did the reboot and it worked just fine.
Any suggestions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How do I turn off open apps? You use to be able to press the home button twice and then hold the app icon until is vibrated and then turn it off.

I am not able to turn off voice over. I have tried to do settings - General - Accessibility - VoiceOver and then triple clicked it but the VoiceOver won't turn off. What can I do? I have even tried to reset the machine keeping the data, no use.

A few people have reported problems with the hand gestures since IOS 8. It's not normal, I have don't have the problem on my iPad 4. I doubt it's a major problem but if it happens regularly I'd have it checked out by the Genius bar at the Apple Store.

You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

I am no longer able to turn off cellular data usage for individual apps. When I turn most of them off, they just automatically reset themselves to allow data usage. Any thoughts?

I am definately having the same problem and cannot believe there are no answers or even support that this problem exists. I never have to post on forumns, I read what is usually readilly availiable for the craziest of problems.
Anyways, the problem is just that, I can toggle off a individual app's setting of cellular data availability, but it changes right back on rescreening. After restarting, resetting etc, it seems that the big Apple Apps are the biggest offenders. Music is a very important one, Podcasts can kill you very quickly, app store, Photos, Facetime, Stocks?!?!?!
When one searches for solutions I have to see hundreds of links to "How great is ios7, you can turn off cellular data for individual apps FOR DUMMIES!". I am a dedicated apple fool since the Apple IIe (long time), but when they run afowl it is usually really bad. Why offer an on/off switch if the setting is always on?
I am writing just to add support to the existence of this problem, not so much for people to offer ideas of solutions as I now believe it is in the coding.
Thank you

HT5661 Just updated my iPad to iOS 7 and it doesn't accept my password so my iPad is disabled. Information on unlocking using iTunes asks me to turn off Find my iPad. This is impossible as I can't access my iPad. Any ideas?

Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. You may need to connect the device to the charger before you attempt the reset.

Will we ever be able to turn off faces and places in iphoto?

Will we ever be able to turn off faces and places in iphoto? Ever?

Thanks for the response. I was hoping I'd just missed where to turn off faces. Yes, I can ignore, but it's annoying when it's constantly asking me for the names of light/shadow patterns that have nothing to do with people (most of my photography is not of people). I'd forgotten places can be turned off, and apparently I do have it turned off, but I still get the box with the world map open all the time.
Anyway, thanks for your help!

How can I turn off in app purchases?

I want my kids to be able to use my iPad, but, they keep making in app purchases without meaning to. No doubt exactly the intention of the developer. Is there a way to turn off in app purchases?

Yes there is...

How do you turn off in app purchases on iMac?

How do you turn off in app purchases on imac?

I'm assuming you mean by using the Mac App Store, if so AFAIK you cannot turn them off. However if you want to prevent someone from making purchases change your AppleID password and don't give it out. Without the password they cannot make purchases. Either that or you can simply sign out. How you sign out in the Mac App Store is Under Quick Links click Account then click Sign Out. Once you are signed out no purchases can be made.

How do you turn off in app purchases

My son was playing the free app download Restaurant Story and made a lot of in app purchases. I don't know how he made the purchases or how you can legally charge somebody for playing a game that is marked FREE. Does anybody know how to turn off "in app" purchases?

Assuming this is an iOS device (iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone, etc):
Find and click on the Settings icon
Select General from the list on the left.
Scroll down on the right until you see Restrictions. Click on it.
At the top, click where it says 'Enable Restrictions'.
It should come up with a box that says 'Set Passcode'. Enter a 4-digit number (you can use the letters to remember it). Keep it as unguessable as possible, but something you can remember. You'll have to enter it twice to confirm.
Scroll Down to the 'Allowed Content' section. Turn OFF the slider next to In-App Purchases. It should not show 'OFF'. That will take care of the In-App Purchases problem.
I highly recommend looking at the other restrictions in the same section - you can restrict Safari, for example, if you want to restrict you kid's web surfing, and set age-level restrictions on music, videos, movies, apps etc. You can also turn off multi-player games and the function for Adding Friends.
